Shoot Many Robots

Shoot Many Robots follows P. Walter Tugnut on his mission to kill as many robots as possible after a factory begins to ominously produce killer robots. With an RV full of guns and beer, gamers will experience a four-player co-op run-n-gun side-scrolling RPG shooter filled with tons of weapon and item customization. Shoot Many Robots will also feature two game modes: Traversal, where players must progress linearly through a level, and Survival, where players fight against waves of robot hordes, delivering hours of robotic carnage and fun.

Unfortunately, I don't think Hug Many Robots would make for a very interesting experience. Read More »

Game titles nowadays are hard. Oftentimes, they tell you far too much without really telling you anything at all. However, in a gaming kingdom (of Amalur: Reckoning Remix 2012 - Double Advent VII Edition: Fall of the Risen Samurai) ruled by overwrought jargon, Shoot Many Robots is elegant in its simplicity. "This is a game about blasting robots until they're fit for the scrap heap's scrap heap," it may as well proclaim. "And that's all." In practice, that means it looks a lot like old-school arcade shoot 'em up Metal Slug mixed with Borderlands. So basically, stupid amounts of dumb fun.
